Course Project Task I

Topic Selection

This course project provides you with the opportunity to develop an expanded knowledge base regarding a specific mental illness/psychological disorder and increase your expertise in diagnostic skill.

For this module, review diagnostic categories and select a specific mental illness/psychological disorder to research and apply to the sport psychology setting.

Spend some time reviewing the DSM and Abnormal psychology text to skim through the diagnostic categories for a specific mental illness/psychological disorder that interests you. You are encouraged to choose a mental illness/psychological disorder that you want to learn more about rather than one you are very familiar with. To synthesize and integrate your learning in a more comprehensive manner, you may want to consider a selection that is based on your professional or personal experiences so that it is personally meaningful to you.

The one that choose is POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER

Next, write a brief description (250–300 words) of the mental illness/psychological disorder that you have chosen to study in Microsoft Word document format.

Provide rationales for choosing the mental illness/psychological disorder.

Name your file SP6005_M1_A3_lastname_firstinitial.doc. By the due date assigned, submit it to the Submissions Area for facilitator’s approval.

All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources.
